7 Expensive Products With Hilarious Amazon Reviews
"I measured the TV and it was actually 104.6 inches not 105, so I returned it."
-- Amazon is known for its review system that helps customers decide if an item belongs in their cart or not. But if you do some digging, there's a trove of completely phony -- and hilarious -- comments on the most expensive products the site sells.
Though Amazon says its "Customer Reviews" are meant to provide genuine product feedback, they do allow these "creative" comments.
Here are 7 of the priciest products, along with some clever commentary from its users.
(Disclaimer: Lots of sarcasm.)
1. Samsung UN105S9 Curved 105-Inch 4K Ultra HD 120Hz 3D Smart LED TV

"The black levels and color depth on this TV are pretty good for the price. However, the small screen size is a deal breaker. I recommend buying an IMAX theater instead."-- mmedina
"I measured the TV and it was actually 104.6 inches not 105 so I returned it." -- ys
2. Asfour Crystal Tut Anhk Amon Chair
PRICE: $140,000

"First, I have to say its great having my relatives back in my life. The first time I placed my tush on this amazing throne I woke the dead and had to make room in my home for all my recent deceased family. The chair looks amazing in my dining room, the way the light reflexes on the facets of the chair. And having Mr Tut come along with the chair was just a amazing bonus. I LOVE THIS CHAIR........hehehe."-- bleakobscurity
